TOMBSTONE.
4 Prosperous aaIn'ns Camp os the
 South.

1 "Business Is rather dull here at pres-
 ent" complains the Tombstoner, in
 conversation, but to a stranger visiting | the town the assertion would not be realized The fact is, the resident of
 that town gauges the present by what
 Il vas N few years ago, compared with
 which Tombstone Is slightly dull.
 Compared with any other town in the
 territory. or any mining camp on the Pacific coast, our friend of the south Is prosperous and active. A press of busi. ness matters and other news items crowding fast upon each other
 has prevented the editor of this paper from heretofore writing of his visit to
 that place,-A visit which will long be
 remembered on account of the extreme
 hospitality extended by its citizens
 Dull or lively, the universal verdict of
 those attending the grand Masonic
 lodge at Tombstone WAS that it contain
 ed the most hospitable people of any
 town they had ever visited. An elegant
 banquet was given to the members of
 the grand lodge and mAsons generally,
 which was A very enjoyable affair. The
 greatest courtesy generally wx> extend ''d to all the visitors, and everyone came away with feeling of the wsrmest se. gards for the people of the place. The
 writer Is particularly indebted to J. 5.
 raylor, clerk in the last legislature here, and business man of that town, for his courtesy in driving him to the works of the Grand Central mine, where Superintendent E B. Gage and Fore man Chas. w Leach showed him trough A portion of the mine. Morris and Henry Goldwster were also of the party, and all were lowered by d steam hoist 10 the $50 foot level of the mine, where drifts, winzes, stopes," and all the other apartments oi a first class mining property were explored. As Is we'll known, the immense hoisting works and big pump of this property was destroyed by fire about year ago, ! and with their destruction the IO-ioot 1 double compartment shaft of Inc com pany was alec destroyed, entaihng loes of upwards ol half million dollars. | The new shat being sunk is now down | $50 feet. aud the company is preparing | 10 repair their pump and place the property where 1t was before the fire While there are probably coo or so men employed in mining in th. vicinity ci Tomb-tnne, the Grand Central is carrying on work more extensively than any other company. They nave 360 men on their pay-rolls, have zig lt steam hoists running on different properties owned by them and, last month, we were told. not officially, but hy resi- lent of the town, that they disbursed in ihe place $52 900. Their mill Is located , few miles from Tombstone, and the of their ore to t gives to large number pf men and animals.
 Aside from the absence of trees or .hrubs in or around the place, Tombstone is beautifully located. It is ,n high, rolling mesa overlooking a valley to the east, and with Joe hills to the west studded with min- ng machinery, the humming of which $ sweet music, the lot of tLe Tomb .toner is anything but what the mourn ul name of the place would indicate.
